Originally set to join the fleet in summer 2025, Allura's inaugural sailing will now depart from Trieste, Italy, on July 18, 2025. This six-day voyage to Athens, Greece, will feature stops in Eastern Mediterranean destinations, including Rijeka, Croatia; Ravenna, Italy; Dubrovnik, Croatia; and Kotor, Montenegro.
